WHAT YOU'LL DO
As a Platform Engineer II, you will automate cloud resources, implement developer tooling, and make changes to our products to increase their manageability. You should be able to define the technical design and implement work independently. You should have prior experience with systems administration and cloud service automation.
Bestow engineers are great teammates. You will spend most of your time with the Platform Engineers working on projects laying the cloud's foundation. You will also work directly with Product Engineering teams on their specific needs and build tooling and automation.
Do you want to build products to reinvent a centuries-old industry? If so, we'd love to hear from you.
